Historically Black Colleges and ポルノ映画 ドラマUniversities, known as HBCUs, have a storied place in American society, acting as central organizing spaces, cultural bulwarks, and institutions for the education of Black communities before desegregation. These schools still serve a vital role today, but their rich histories — from successful sports teams to homes for national heroes — aren't as widely publicized.
A recent initiative from Getty Images is supporting efforts to preserve visual stories and histories from HBCUs. The following images were digitized as part of the Getty Images Photo Archive Grant for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), in partnership with the Getty Family and the philanthropic network Stand Together. The program awards a $500,000 grant to digitize up to 200,000 archival photos supplied by colleges and universities.
On Tuesday, the first batch of images from this year's four recipients was released. "The Getty Images Photo Archive Grants for HBCUs were created to honor the vast history of HBCUs and their contribution to American history,” said Cassandra Illidge, vice president of partnerships at Getty Images, in a Tuesday press release.
First announced in August 2021, the recipients of this year's grant include Claflin University, Jackson State University, North Carolina Central University, and Prairie View A&M University. According to Getty Images, each HBCU will retain all copyrights for digitized photos, and any revenue will be funneled back into HBCU impact programs, including scholarship funds.
The first batch of images, which will be updated as images continue to be restored, include the campus homecoming queens of Jackson State University, images of student unrest following on-campus police brutality, and even community images from the surrounding town at Prairie View A&M University. Students go about their days in chemistry and domestic arts courses, while basketball players win championships and agricultural clubs take home ribbons for prized livestock. The images show the joy, tragedy, and day-to-day life of HBCU students and their communities.
Check out some of the historic images from the Historically Black Colleges and Universities Collection below, ahead of February's Black History Month.
